About

With over four years as a Senior Engineering Manager at Expedia Group, I led a team focused on developing a scalable and automated observability solution for Expedia Group. Our work supports all three pillars of Observability, which are metrics, logging, and tracing. We are leveraging AWS services, Kubernetes, and tools like DataDog, Splunk, and Open Telemetry. By addressing technical debt and eliminating manual touchpoints, we empower the developer community with seamless adoption of modern Observability solutions, while simplifying the overall tech landscape efficiently. Drawing on extensive experience in engineering operations, I specialize in implementing enterprise tools and automation to enhance efficiency and self-service capabilities. My mission is to enable high-performance development environments and ensure the resilience of critical applications.
